Chapter 979_1

Xiao'er had just returned from the Eldest Princess Mansion to the entrance of Prince Rui's Mansion, when the Empress Dowager sent someone to summon her.

This made things more convenient. She didn't even need to enter her own door. She could just turn the carriage directly back towards the Imperial Palace.

Outside of the Imperial Palace, Xiao'er also saw Yun'er's carriage.

The two sisters entered the palace gate together, heading towards the Cining Palace.

This was Yun'er's first time being summoned by the Empress Dowager. Holding her hand, Xiao'er asked, "Are you scared?"

"Not at all." Yun'er shook her head, then continued, "I am the wife of the crown prince of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, although not married yet. The Empress Dowager can only scold me a bit, but she wouldn't dare to do anything more. But you, sister, probably will have a hard time dealing with the Empress Dowager!"
